You are correct (we missed this patch probably due to the fact that it was so close to the 1.3 release, which was based on kernel 2.6.24). It is already in the OFED 1.4 tree. I'll add it to the OFED 1.3 tree, so that it will be included in any future OFED 1.3 releases. (Note that Roland asked Linus to pull this patch for the kernel 2.6.25 tree on Jan 25, 2008: http://lists.openfabrics.org/pipermail/general/2008-January/045492.html ) - Jack _______________________________________________ ewg mailing list ewg@lists.openfabrics.org http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ewg
